With critical support from the Montreal General Hospital Foundation (MGHF), this futuristic research hub is bringing robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) to many medical disciplines from orthopedic, abdominal, head and neck, eye, maxillofacial and spinal surgery to interventional cardiology and radiology reimagining and redesigning medical procedures to make them less invasive, more personalized, safer and more effective.
SuPER is Canada’s first and only hospital-based surgical robotics and artificial intelligence centre capable of conducting full spectrum translational research from bench to clinic. Leveraging the expertise of McGill University and the MUHC Department of Surgery, it brings together leading clinicians, engineers, researchers, students and trainees from diverse disciplines to collaborate on the design, development, testing and refinement of innovative solutions that address true clinical needs.
At the heart of SuPER is a fleet of intelligent surgical robotic platforms most of them developed in-house at The Institute’s Clinical Innovation Platform (CLIP). These innovative and proprietary systems, which are empowered by AI using real clinical data, augment the surgeons’ skills and capabilities. Located in the Dr. Phil Gold Pavilion at the MGH, SuPER is part of The Institute’s Surgical and Interventional Sciences Program, which brings together basic, translational and clinical research experts working together with trainees and staff to expand knowledge in surgical procedures and trauma medicine.
The creation of SuPER builds on a long legacy of cutting-edge surgical innovation at the MGH a legacy that has become a central element of the MUHC’s broader philosophy for advancing patient care. It also forms the foundation of Surgeon-in-Chief Dr. Liane Feldman’s vision, The Future of Surgery, an ambitious 10-year plan that focuses on the development of new technologies and innovative practices to deliver safer, more personalized care and improved recovery outcomes for patients.
